Velitsko,

I am sure your enjoyment of your watch is dramatically enhanced by the way you got it. Self-discipline is a great thing. If you practice anything long enough, you usually get pretty good at it. The self-discipline you practiced to obtain your watch and improve your lifestyle will likely pay you dividends over and over again in life. That only increases the true worth of your watch in my view.

Nice photo.

Otto

I know how it goes. I got my first Rolex from giving up drinking. This watch is going to be very special to you. Nothing you buy from now on will be as good. Each day you wear your GMT you will be reminded not to smoke. Now invest your money so you can retire young

What a great reward and incentive to quit smoking. The real long-term reward will be better health and longevity though!
